Family Stories

When a child gets a life-threatening illness, everything changes. Parents often lose their jobs because of the time needed to care for their child. Families struggle with everyday living expenses. Here are some of their stories.

Our Events

We host a golf tournament each summer and a formal gala or a comedy night in the spring. Money raised through these events is our main source of revenue. And with low overhead, the money goes to help families.

Create a Campaign

Now you can create your own fundraising campaign right on our website! No matter how big or small, all donations help. Examples: a lemonade stand, a school dance, a dinner for friends or even dedicate your birthday!

Our mission

Caruso Family Charities is dedicated to assisting families of a child, adolescent or young adult being treated in Colorado for a life-threatening illness or life-altering event. Our mission is to help relieve some of the financial pressures so the family may focus on caring for their sick child.

FEATURED CAMPAIGN

Thank you for donating to Caruso Family Charities. Your donation goes directly to helping families who need a hand while their child is gravely ill. We help with the most pressing needs like rent, power bills, building wheelchair ramps, automobile repairs, medical supplies and other important goods and services. Help is immediate and hands-on. Needs are personally assessed by our staff and visits are paid to the families. Many are so happy to know that there are people in their community (like you) who care enough to help.
